Who We Are
Peace Evangelical Church is a predominantly Asian based community of Bible believing Christians. Our story began in 1962 with our founder David Ng who along with a few others planted a church in Hong Kong. Since then the church has grown into a movement of 34 other churches in Hong Kong, one in Macao and another congregation in San Francisco.
A need later arise as more and more Asian families began to immigrate to Vancouver. It was realized that there was no place to learn and worship God together. And so in 1995, Brother David Ng decides to open his home for others to come worship, fellowship, learn and bond together. As numbers grew, the home gatherings moved to a warehouse as well opening an English congregation for our English speaking members.
At our new location, Peace Evangelical Church continues to foster new relationships and opportunities for others to know God and to worship him. Eventually numbers also grew beyond the space the warehouse provided, which explains where we are today at our new location on No. 5 Road.
Today the English congregation has a growing number of young adults that make up this vibrant community of Christians. The English speaking service is open to all that wish to learn from God’s word through the preaching of the Gospel as well as sound Biblical teaching. The English congregation meets weekly at 10am and are becoming an ethnically diverse group which shares a common goal of communicating the love of God in a warm and friendly environment.
Values
At PEC, we believe in a holy righteous God that created the universe we see today. We know that as people, we are not perfect but God is, that is why He send his one and only son Jesus Christ to die on the cross for our sins. We place our values on the Bible and continually support and grow in this walk of life through prayer, love and the scriptures.
